Roskies; "Montreal of Yesterday: A Snapshot of Jewish Life in Montreal During the Era of Mass Immigration" by Zachary M. Baker; "The Journal of Yaacov Zipper 1925-1926" by Ode Garfinkle and Mervin Butovsky; "H. M. Caiserman: Yiddish as a Passion" by Pierre Anctil; "'A Letter from the Sabbath Queen': Rabbi Yudel Rosenberg Addresses Montreal Jewry" by Ira Robinson; "Between Two Worlds: The Works of J. I. Segal" by Shari Cooper Friedman; "Public Lives in Private: Ida Maze and the Montreal Yiddish Renaissance" by Irving Massey.
